Information received here show that the loss of the Alabama Legislature was owing to the bolting Republican tickets rnn in Mobile, Baldwin and Madison counties. In Mobile county, five bolters ran independent of tbe regular nominee, receiving some 200 vote, just sufficient to defeat the regular candidate, who had about 4,000 votes. Had the five regular nominees received the fall party vote the KepuDUcans would nave had a majority on joint ballot sufficient to have elected a Senator in Congress to succeed General Warner. This bolt, it Is alleged, was nnder the auspices of the Postmaster and Collector of the Port of Mobile. Harter, recently appointed Appraiser at Mobile, led the bolting ticket, aud hiseoinmission will probably be revoked. NKW MEXICO. A delegation of prominent cffioials of the Territory of. New.

Omcivnati, November IS, 1870.' -This afternoon two colored men, somewhat dutoxieatedj got on the down passenger traia on the Indianapolis, Cincinnati and Lafayette railroad, at Greens-burg, Indiana. When conductor John C. Smith came around demanding tickets. one of the. men, Captain Scott, of this city, manifested . a . disposition to play with the conductor and to delay matters by handing him a piece of paper. The patience of the conductor gave out, and he stopped the train and put both men off by force, though it appears the second party had not participated in the delay, and after the bell had rang agreed, according to the statement of a passenger, to pay his fare. This so enraged the second malt, who was a harbor from Greensburg. that be drew a revoler and discharged it thrice at the conductor, one ball taking effect in the hip. Finally they were induced to come on the train, and manifesting a disposition for farther fight a brakesman undertook to knock the barber down. This failed, and the latter discharged his pistol, this time at the brakesman, though without effect. Ths two were finally arrested and sent back to Greensbnrg. The conductor is seriously though not dan-, gerously wounded. - - . Tim . HAITEB.V QVBRTItlf. The Cirealar et friaeo GertaehalteST, s?rlfj MiaUter mt Basal a, to the Karspua Pawera. . We printed in the Statesman of yesterday the reply of Lord Granville, of the English Cabinet, to the notification of Russia that the treaty of Paris of 1856, so far as Russia is concerned, is at an end. The concluding and essential portion of Russia's note is as follows : , "Upon mature examination- of this question, his Imperial Majesty has arriv. ed at the following conclusion, whieh you are directed to bring to the knowledge of the Government to which yon are accredited. Our anguat master cannot admit in law that treaties infringed in several of their essential and general clauses remain obligatory hi those which touch ths direct interests of his Empire. His Imperial Majesty cannot depend on a fiction which ha not withstood the test of time, and be pnt in peril by his respect for engagement which have not been observed in their integrity. The Emperor, confiding in the sentiments of equity of the signatory powers of the treaty of 1356, and in the consciousness they have of. their own dignity, instructs yon to declare that his Imperial Majesty cannot longer consider himself bonnd by the treaty obligations of the 18-30th March, 1856, eo far as this limits his right of soterignty in the Black Sea: that his Majesty considers it his rightand duty to give notice to His Majesty the Saltan in respect to the special eonven-1 tion additional to said treaty, which fixes the number and dimensions of ships of war which the two riparian powers reserve the right of maintaining in the Black Sea; that he loyally gives notice of this to the powers signing and guaranteeing the general treaty of whioh this special convention constitutes an integral part; that he restores to his Majesty the Sultan the full possession of his rights in this respect, as he equally reclaims his own for himself, " In discharging this duty, you will be careful to state that our august master has id viewonly the security and dignity of his Empire. It is by no means the pur- goae of his Imperial Majesty to raise the astern question. Upon this point he has ne other wish than the preservation and consolidation of peace. He fully maintains his adhesion to the general principles of the treaty of 1856, which settled the positien ot Turkey in the European system. He is ready to come to an understanding with the Powers who signed this arrangement, either to confirm its general stipulations, or to renew them, or to substitute for them any other equitable arrangement which may be thought suitable to secure the repose of the East European equilibrium. "His majesty is convinced that that peace, and that equilibrium, will have a stronger guarantee when they shall have been placed on a more jnst and solid basis than that resulting from a position which no great Power could acoept as a normal condition of existence. "Yon are desired to read this dispatch to the Ministers of Foreign Affairs, and leave a copy with them. Resolve,... "GosTiCHAEorr." This demand from tbe Russian Government was presented simultaneously, on the 9th Inst., at London, Constantinople, Tours, and Florence. Lord Gran-vill's reply was delivered to Gortscha-koff, at St. Petersburg, in just one week, on the 16th. . The captive of Wilhelmshohe has again unbosomed himself to an American interviewer, this time to the representative of the New York Time, whom he cordially received and to whom he gave the most encouraging statements as to his improvement in health. The Emperor's household is maintained by the Prussian King, and his daily life is that of a quiet country gentleman. He rises at six, shaves and dresses himself, reads the papers, smokes oigarettea, drinks tea at breakfast, and has Damn's novels read to him. He takes long and vigorous walks through the grounds of the chateau, and it was on one of these tramps that he gave his views on the subject of peace to the attending correspondent. He considered it impossible for any Government to conclude a treaty of peace with Germany on the basis of a cession of territory and hope to main-tain itself in France. A money indent- nity and the razing of the fortresses coveted by Germany should not be allowed to stand in the way as obstacles to the conclusion of peace, bnt further than this the Provisional Government, and in fact no Government, could go.

Tow Street Methodist Episcopal CHurch Methodism Tears Ago Ths Itinerancy Circuit Hiding Orcaniaatioa of .th Church Its Minister and its Progress Pros perous ; Condition Now-; Present Church sad Sunday School Officers. , -THE ITINRRAVCY.:r ,,,.'('' The itinerancy is the great engine of success in religions teaching in a new country. As population increases, and the territory beoomes dotted with towns and villages, bound together by chains of thrifty farms blossoming with prosperity, tbe necessity, for the pld-time style of clerical perambulation becomes abated in a great degree, aad the eld pioneers who still remain with us compare the primi tive manner of disseminating the gospel then with the ease, elegance and eomfort of to-day, and profoundly acknowledge the might of Providence, and the aston ishing advancement of civilization. The itinerancy is necessarily adopted by all denominations, to1 a greater- er less extent, in planting themselves in sparsely populated conntries. ' Sixty er seventy years ago it took all the people in a very large section of eonntry now included in Delaware, Franklin and other counties to make a congregation numerically respectable, and extensive travel was necessarily divided between the teacher and receiver. Bot to the Methodist EmscoDal Church belonirs the systematized itinerancy. They made a method of it when tbe preachers rode circuits sometimes hundreds of miles in extent, preaching by appointment to isolated settlements in "God's first temples." So effective has been the system, so astonishing have been the results that have accrued from it, that the Methodists of today cling to it with an affection on aoeount of it past efficacy, and because of their firm belief in its value in the future, overcoming imperfections that long experience has suggested, and preparing it for still more practical introduction into communities yet in infancy. ' EARLY METHODISM IN OHIO. The first introduction of Methodism in this State and in this vicinity was attended with all the difficulties of pioneer life. The preachers aud the people had their nps and dows, their encouragements and their discouragements ; and there is scarcely any rooom to donbt the sincerity and practical piety of those who abandoned comfort and east) to pursue the blazed paths in the wilderness. Previous to 1914 we have no account of a regular Methodist organization in Columbus. In that year Rev. Samuel West, who had charge of the circuit in which Columbus (having then a population of about 700) was included, organized the first chnrch or class, which has grown into what is now known as the . TOWS STREET CHURCH. The fonr original members were George McCormick and his wife; George B. Harvey, and Miss Jane Armstrong, who afterwards became the wife- of Mr.. Harvey. The next member admitted was a colored man named Moses Freeman, who went to Liberia eight or ten years afterwards and there died. . During the same' year the proprietors of the town donated the lot on which the Church stands to George McCormick, Peter Grubb, John Bickell and George B. Harvey, as trustees, for the benefit of the Chnrch. This building was also used as a school house, and W.fT. Martin taught there in the year following. Isaac Pavey succeeded Mr. West in 1815, according to tbe most reli able information wo can obtain. RET. JACOB HOOrER, Was the first regular appointee to the circuit fonnd. in the Conference minutes. This was In 1816, when there were about six hundred members in the circuit. Mr. Hooper wa. succeeded on the circuit the following year by William Swayze and Simon Peters, the former noted as a revivalist, and during this year (1617) a frame addition was made to the log house on Town street. Succeeding these gen tlemen were the following CIRCUIT PREACHERS. In 1818, William Swayze and Samuel Lane; 1819, John Tewis and Leroy Sworm-sted; 1820, John Tevis and Peter Stevens; 1821, Rnssell Bigelow and Horace Brown; 1822, Russell Bigelow and Thomas Mo- Cleary; 1823, Charles Waddle and H. S. Fernandes; 1824, Charles Waddle and Alfred Lorane; 1825, Leroy S worms ted and Joseph Carper; 1826, Joseph Carper and John H. Power; 1827, Samnel Hamilton and Jacob lonng; 182s Samuel Hamilton and Jesse F. Nixom (the latter part of the year only); 1829; Leroy Swormsted and G. Blue; 1830, John W. Clark and AdamPoe. A BRICK CHURCH Of considerable size was erected in 1825 in place of tho log building, bnt was not finished inside for some years afterwards. although constantly need aa a church. COLUMBUS A STATION. In 1830 Town Street Chnrch was or ganized as a station, and Rev. Thomas A. Morris (now Bishop Morris) appointed to its charge. During the year ot his service a great revival took placo, at which Rev. Dr. Joseph M. Trimble, then of the Cbillicothe circuit, assisted. At this time the chnrch building was still unfinished. The walls were not plastered, and square pieces of timber were placed on the floor and boards laid across them for seats. Notwithstanding the uncomfortable character of the accommodations, religious work went on with great energy, and in five or six days about ninety members were received into the church. During the year the membership was about doubled, and at the close of the year 320 members were reported. Rev. Robert O. Spencer succeeded Bishop Morris, and served the church one year. REV. RUSSELL BIGELOW Succeeded to the pastoral charge in 1833- He is remembered as an eloquent and otherwise remarkable man. Bigelow Chapel, of this city, was subsequently named for him. At the end of his first year he reported a membership of 324. He was reaoDOinted for a second vear. bot his health failing Rev. Leonard D. Gnrley relieved him during the latter part of his term. Mr. Bigelow wa after- , n, 1- .f .1 T 1 IL A, A wards tUapiain ui iuo r euiwBLitvy, auu we believe was acting in this capacity at the time of his death. SUCCEEDING PASTORS. After Mr. Gurley, Rev. E. W. Seahon was pastor for two years, and following him, in. order, were Rev. Joseph Carper and Rev. Joseph A. Waterman, each for one year. Rev. William Herr, now agent of the American Bible Society, came next. He took charge with 260 members, and at the end of two years left the church with a membership of 273. REV. JOSEPH M. TRIMBLE . Followed Mr. Herr in 1840, and remained with the church for two years. During his connection a memorable revival of religion took place, and at the end ot nis term tbe enure n naa ou memoers. THK NEXT PASTOR Was Rev. David Whitcomb, who re mained for one year, followed bv Revs. John MHey " and Abram Wambangh jointly for one year, and Rev. John Miley 8iDSlr! Jot one year. Rev. Granville Moodeynext took pastoral charge, aad was reappointed for a second year, at bus sua i) I wnirn n miuikai tuwi bers. At this time (184?) the nramn. tion of WmIdo r'K.nl Ko ? growth of the parent stem, was formed. After this came Rev. Cvrns Brooks for two years, Rev.

' REV. JOHN W. WHITE," '. ,' 'i Now pastor of Bigelow Chapel, was appointed to succeed Mr. Bruner, and remained two years, .during which time there was another great revival. After this came Rev. James M. Jamison for two years, and Rev. B. N. Spahr for two years. In 1860, Dr. J. M. Trimble was again appointed, serving two years, during which timer Christie Chapel was organ ized. Town street Chnrch was undergoing an ordeal of PTNAXC1AL EMBARRASSMENT, Which 'was quite disheartening. Some of the lower rooms of the building were still not plastered, and a debt was hang ing over the congregation the interest of which was all that could be met (and that with difficulty) by the resources at hand. A new system of finance was introduced, however, the liberality of the members was called npon, and bv a judicious sys tem of -contributions and management, the lower rooms were finished and the debt so decidedly reduced that the influential members determined to cancel it at once, and speedily placed the congre gation on a firm financial basis. . .. THR RECENT PASTORS. ' Following Dr. Trimble, Rev. Daniel D. Mather had charge for' two years, and Rev. C. A. Tan Anda (at present Presiding Elder of this district) for three years. Rev. W. H. Scott succeeded for one year, and the Rev. Earl Cranston was the preacher during h last conference year. , REV. B..N- 6PAHR Is the present pastor of the chnrch, having a few weeks ago removed from Lancaster, 'where he had been engaged fur six- years, two years of the time as Presiding Elder. Mr. Spahr is a gentleman' of tine ability, and is no less regarded for : his ministrations in the pnlprt, than for the healthful influence of his private intercourse, which ia unrestrained. Mr. Spahr meets with a hearty welcome on his second coming as the pastor of Town Street. THE PRESENT CONDITION Of the Church -is excellent. After years of labor, and probably with its full share of vicissitudes, it now stands on an indestructible basis. The church building is substantial and attractive, combining all modern conveniences. The Church property, including a comfortable parsonage, is valned at about $10,000 or more, and the debt is insignificant, considering the numerical ' strength and . wealth of the congregation, amounting, probably, to about $1,000. There are now about four hundred members, but in addition to this it must be recollected that Town Street has supplied the basis of membership for nearly, if not quite all the other Metbo- uisi-Vfiuruiics in me cjby. - ."'

The French had constructed heavy earthworks in front of the railway junction, just outside ot Or leans. Ten thousand men had been employed to work. The French army under General d'Aurelles Paladines was massed between Orleans and Artenay. The cav airy oi the French was being wretchedly managed. A large number of boats were collected at Orleans to oroa the army to the southern bank of the Loire in case of defeat ia the impending battle.

Had the five regular nominees received the fall party vote the KepuDUcans would nave had a majority on joint ballot sufficient to have elected a Senator in Congress to succeed General Warner.

Omcivnati, November IS, 1870.' -This afternoon two colored men, somewhat dutoxieatedj got on the down passenger traia on the Indianapolis, Cincinnati and Lafayette railroad, at Greens-burg, Indiana. When conductor John C. Smith came around demanding tickets. one of the. men, Captain Scott, of this city, manifested . a . disposition to play with the conductor and to delay matters by handing him a piece of paper. The patience of the conductor gave out, and he stopped the train and put both men off by force, though it appears the second party had not participated in the delay, and after the bell had rang agreed, according to the statement of a passenger, to pay his fare. This so enraged the second malt, who was a harbor from Greensburg. that be drew a revoler and discharged it thrice at the conductor, one ball taking effect in the hip. Finally they were induced to come on the train, and manifesting a disposition for farther fight a brakesman undertook to knock the barber down. This failed, and the latter discharged his pistol, this time at the brakesman, though without effect. Ths two were finally arrested and sent back to Greensbnrg. The conductor is seriously though not dan-, gerously wounded. - - . Tim . HAITEB.V QVBRTItlf. The Cirealar et friaeo GertaehalteST, s?rlfj MiaUter mt Basal a, to the Karspua Pawera. . We printed in the Statesman of yesterday the reply of Lord Granville, of the English Cabinet, to the notification of Russia that the treaty of Paris of 1856, so far as Russia is concerned, is at an end. The concluding and essential portion of Russia's note is as follows : , "Upon mature examination- of this question, his Imperial Majesty has arriv. ed at the following conclusion, whieh you are directed to bring to the knowledge of the Government to which yon are accredited. Our anguat master cannot admit in law that treaties infringed in several of their essential and general clauses remain obligatory hi those which touch ths direct interests of his Empire. His Imperial Majesty cannot depend on a fiction which ha not withstood the test of time, and be pnt in peril by his respect for engagement which have not been observed in their integrity. The Emperor, confiding in the sentiments of equity of the signatory powers of the treaty of 1356, and in the consciousness they have of. their own dignity, instructs yon to declare that his Imperial Majesty cannot longer consider himself bonnd by the treaty obligations of the 18-30th March, 1856, eo far as this limits his right of soterignty in the Black Sea: that his Majesty considers it his rightand duty to give notice to His Majesty the Saltan in respect to the special eonven-1 tion additional to said treaty, which fixes the number and dimensions of ships of war which the two riparian powers reserve the right of maintaining in the Black Sea; that he loyally gives notice of this to the powers signing and guaranteeing the general treaty of whioh this special convention constitutes an integral part; that he restores to his Majesty the Sultan the full possession of his rights in this respect, as he equally reclaims his own for himself, " In discharging this duty, you will be careful to state that our august master has id viewonly the security and dignity of his Empire. It is by no means the pur- goae of his Imperial Majesty to raise the astern question. Upon this point he has ne other wish than the preservation and consolidation of peace. He fully maintains his adhesion to the general principles of the treaty of 1856, which settled the positien ot Turkey in the European system. He is ready to come to an understanding with the Powers who signed this arrangement, either to confirm its general stipulations, or to renew them, or to substitute for them any other equitable arrangement which may be thought suitable to secure the repose of the East European equilibrium. "His majesty is convinced that that peace, and that equilibrium, will have a stronger guarantee when they shall have been placed on a more jnst and solid basis than that resulting from a position which no great Power could acoept as a normal condition of existence. "Yon are desired to read this dispatch to the Ministers of Foreign Affairs, and leave a copy with them. Resolve,... "GosTiCHAEorr." This demand from tbe Russian Government was presented simultaneously, on the 9th Inst., at London, Constantinople, Tours, and Florence. Lord Gran-vill's reply was delivered to Gortscha-koff, at St. Petersburg, in just one week, on the 16th. . The captive of Wilhelmshohe has again unbosomed himself to an American interviewer, this time to the representative of the New York Time, whom he cordially received and to whom he gave the most encouraging statements as to his improvement in health. The Emperor's household is maintained by the Prussian King, and his daily life is that of a quiet country gentleman. He rises at six, shaves and dresses himself, reads the papers, smokes oigarettea, drinks tea at breakfast, and has Damn's novels read to him. He takes long and vigorous walks through the grounds of the chateau, and it was on one of these tramps that he gave his views on the subject of peace to the attending correspondent. He considered it impossible for any Government to conclude a treaty of peace with Germany on the basis of a cession of territory and hope to main-tain itself in France. A money indent- nity and the razing of the fortresses coveted by Germany should not be allowed to stand in the way as obstacles to the conclusion of peace, bnt further than this the Provisional Government, and in fact no Government, could go. The Emperer even went so far as to say that he would prefer exile in Great Britain or the United' States, on the most limited means, to accepting the restoration of his dynasty on such conditions as those sought to be imposed. A youno man who parts his hair in the middle and believes his mission is jour nalism, sends in the following: "Did yon ever have a boil on your toeT If so, what kind of a vegetable did it resem ble!

Tow Street Methodist Episcopal CHurch Methodism Tears Ago Ths Itinerancy Circuit Hiding Orcaniaatioa of .th Church Its Minister and its Progress Pros perous ; Condition Now-; Present Church sad Sunday School Officers. , -THE ITINRRAVCY.:r ,,,.'('' The itinerancy is the great engine of success in religions teaching in a new country. As population increases, and the territory beoomes dotted with towns and villages, bound together by chains of thrifty farms blossoming with prosperity, tbe necessity, for the pld-time style of clerical perambulation becomes abated in a great degree, aad the eld pioneers who still remain with us compare the primi tive manner of disseminating the gospel then with the ease, elegance and eomfort of to-day, and profoundly acknowledge the might of Providence, and the aston ishing advancement of civilization. The itinerancy is necessarily adopted by all denominations, to1 a greater- er less extent, in planting themselves in sparsely populated conntries. ' Sixty er seventy years ago it took all the people in a very large section of eonntry now included in Delaware, Franklin and other counties to make a congregation numerically respectable, and extensive travel was necessarily divided between the teacher and receiver. Bot to the Methodist EmscoDal Church belonirs the systematized itinerancy. They made a method of it when tbe preachers rode circuits sometimes hundreds of miles in extent, preaching by appointment to isolated settlements in "God's first temples." So effective has been the system, so astonishing have been the results that have accrued from it, that the Methodists of today cling to it with an affection on aoeount of it past efficacy, and because of their firm belief in its value in the future, overcoming imperfections that long experience has suggested, and preparing it for still more practical introduction into communities yet in infancy. ' EARLY METHODISM IN OHIO. The first introduction of Methodism in this State and in this vicinity was attended with all the difficulties of pioneer life. The preachers aud the people had their nps and dows, their encouragements and their discouragements ; and there is scarcely any rooom to donbt the sincerity and practical piety of those who abandoned comfort and east) to pursue the blazed paths in the wilderness. Previous to 1914 we have no account of a regular Methodist organization in Columbus. In that year Rev. Samuel West, who had charge of the circuit in which Columbus (having then a population of about 700) was included, organized the first chnrch or class, which has grown into what is now known as the . TOWS STREET CHURCH. The fonr original members were George McCormick and his wife; George B. Harvey, and Miss Jane Armstrong, who afterwards became the wife- of Mr.. Harvey. The next member admitted was a colored man named Moses Freeman, who went to Liberia eight or ten years afterwards and there died. . During the same' year the proprietors of the town donated the lot on which the Church stands to George McCormick, Peter Grubb, John Bickell and George B. Harvey, as trustees, for the benefit of the Chnrch. This building was also used as a school house, and W.fT. Martin taught there in the year following. Isaac Pavey succeeded Mr. West in 1815, according to tbe most reli able information wo can obtain. RET. JACOB HOOrER, Was the first regular appointee to the circuit fonnd. in the Conference minutes. This was In 1816, when there were about six hundred members in the circuit. Mr. Hooper wa. succeeded on the circuit the following year by William Swayze and Simon Peters, the former noted as a revivalist, and during this year (1617) a frame addition was made to the log house on Town street. Succeeding these gen tlemen were the following CIRCUIT PREACHERS. In 1818, William Swayze and Samuel Lane; 1819, John Tewis and Leroy Sworm-sted; 1820, John Tevis and Peter Stevens; 1821, Rnssell Bigelow and Horace Brown; 1822, Russell Bigelow and Thomas Mo- Cleary; 1823, Charles Waddle and H. S. Fernandes; 1824, Charles Waddle and Alfred Lorane; 1825, Leroy S worms ted and Joseph Carper; 1826, Joseph Carper and John H. Power; 1827, Samnel Hamilton and Jacob lonng; 182s Samuel Hamilton and Jesse F. Nixom (the latter part of the year only); 1829; Leroy Swormsted and G. Blue; 1830, John W. Clark and AdamPoe. A BRICK CHURCH Of considerable size was erected in 1825 in place of tho log building, bnt was not finished inside for some years afterwards. although constantly need aa a church. COLUMBUS A STATION. In 1830 Town Street Chnrch was or ganized as a station, and Rev. Thomas A. Morris (now Bishop Morris) appointed to its charge. During the year ot his service a great revival took placo, at which Rev. Dr. Joseph M. Trimble, then of the Cbillicothe circuit, assisted. At this time the chnrch building was still unfinished. The walls were not plastered, and square pieces of timber were placed on the floor and boards laid across them for seats. Notwithstanding the uncomfortable character of the accommodations, religious work went on with great energy, and in five or six days about ninety members were received into the church. During the year the membership was about doubled, and at the close of the year 320 members were reported. Rev. Robert O. Spencer succeeded Bishop Morris, and served the church one year. REV. RUSSELL BIGELOW Succeeded to the pastoral charge in 1833- He is remembered as an eloquent and otherwise remarkable man. Bigelow Chapel, of this city, was subsequently named for him. At the end of his first year he reported a membership of 324. He was reaoDOinted for a second vear. bot his health failing Rev. Leonard D. Gnrley relieved him during the latter part of his term. Mr. Bigelow wa after- , n, 1- .f .1 T 1 IL A, A wards tUapiain ui iuo r euiwBLitvy, auu we believe was acting in this capacity at the time of his death. SUCCEEDING PASTORS. After Mr. Gurley, Rev. E. W. Seahon was pastor for two years, and following him, in. order, were Rev. Joseph Carper and Rev. Joseph A. Waterman, each for one year. Rev. William Herr, now agent of the American Bible Society, came next. He took charge with 260 members, and at the end of two years left the church with a membership of 273. REV. JOSEPH M. TRIMBLE . Followed Mr. Herr in 1840, and remained with the church for two years. During his connection a memorable revival of religion took place, and at the end ot nis term tbe enure n naa ou memoers. THK NEXT PASTOR Was Rev. David Whitcomb, who re mained for one year, followed bv Revs. John MHey " and Abram Wambangh jointly for one year, and Rev. John Miley 8iDSlr! Jot one year. Rev.

At this time (184?) the nramn. tion of WmIdo r'K.nl Ko ? growth of the parent stem, was formed. After this came Rev. Cvrns Brooks for two years, Rev.

' REV. JOHN W. WHITE," '. ,' 'i Now pastor of Bigelow Chapel, was appointed to succeed Mr. Bruner, and remained two years, .during which time there was another great revival. After this came Rev. James M. Jamison for two years, and Rev. B. N. Spahr for two years. In 1860, Dr. J. M. Trimble was again appointed, serving two years, during which timer Christie Chapel was organ ized. Town street Chnrch was undergoing an ordeal of PTNAXC1AL EMBARRASSMENT, Which 'was quite disheartening. Some of the lower rooms of the building were still not plastered, and a debt was hang ing over the congregation the interest of which was all that could be met (and that with difficulty) by the resources at hand. A new system of finance was introduced, however, the liberality of the members was called npon, and bv a judicious sys tem of -contributions and management, the lower rooms were finished and the debt so decidedly reduced that the influential members determined to cancel it at once, and speedily placed the congre gation on a firm financial basis. . .. THR RECENT PASTORS. ' Following Dr. Trimble, Rev. Daniel D. Mather had charge for' two years, and Rev. C. A. Tan Anda (at present Presiding Elder of this district) for three years. Rev. W. H. Scott succeeded for one year, and the Rev. Earl Cranston was the preacher during h last conference year. , REV. B..N- 6PAHR Is the present pastor of the chnrch, having a few weeks ago removed from Lancaster, 'where he had been engaged fur six- years, two years of the time as Presiding Elder. Mr. Spahr is a gentleman' of tine ability, and is no less regarded for : his ministrations in the pnlprt, than for the healthful influence of his private intercourse, which ia unrestrained. Mr. Spahr meets with a hearty welcome on his second coming as the pastor of Town Street. THE PRESENT CONDITION Of the Church -is excellent. After years of labor, and probably with its full share of vicissitudes, it now stands on an indestructible basis. The church building is substantial and attractive, combining all modern conveniences.
